Braved the rain and stopped by the LPGA Q school for a few hours to get a few graphs. Thanks to the rain on Friday and Saturday, they had to make a cut on Sunday so Monday had a scaled down field. Amanda Blumenhurst won the event (no surprise...she was awesome in college) and some of the other highly touted college players, such as Maria Hernandez (Purdue), Pernilla Lindberg (Oklahoma State) and Azahara Munoz (Arizona State) got their cards for next year. Some gals who spent time on the tour regained their cards including Liz Janangelo and Julieta Granada. There were some surprises at the top of the leaderboard. Katie Kempter and Marianne Skarpnord finished tied for second. Katie's dad, when I asked her to sign an autograph for me, told me that she was going to win it all. He wasn't too far from the truth as Katie finished two shots from the lead.
Graphs included pages out of Golfworld or Golfweek for Tiffany Joh, Jane Park (she was Joh's caddie for the week), Blumenhurst, Munoz, Hernandez, Nicole Hage, Liz Janangelo, Alison Walshe, among others. I made custom cards for a lot of the golfers which included Lindberg, Adrienne White, Beatriz Recari, Tanya Dergal, among others. Other than the rain and cold, it was worth the few hours.
Congratulations to all who received their cards...and for those who at least received some status, even if it is not full status on the big tour.
